This article was edited to describe Michael Madigan as Lisa's stepfather. The article of Michael himself decribes her as his daughter. Which is it? A blood or a step relation??? Anyone has a source to prove she's the stepchild and not related by blood to Madigan? -- fdewaele, 12 February 2007, 13:03.
I found this [1] which implies Michael Madigan adopted her when he married her divorced mother. That makes him her father, not step-father. Flatterworld06:23, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Another source is Lynn Sweet of the Chicago Sun-Times [2] (May 10, 2006) who claims 'step daughter'. I've generally seen 'father' and 'daughter' in Chicago news coverage of them. Flatterworld06:28, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
She was a step-daughter at age 10, when her mother, Shirley Murray, married Michael. Later, in her 20's, Michael legally adopted her. (Rising Star[3], Illinois Times, Feb. 5, 2009) --Spiffy sperry (talk) 18:38, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If the image is non-free then you may need to upload it to Wikipedia (Commons does not allow fair use)
If the image isn't freely licensed and there is no fair use rationale then it cannot be uploaded or used.
